It’s been three months since I have posted anything in this blog! This blog I once poured my heart and brains into! I even made that header. To be honest, as much as I love it, it’s the reason I’ m have entered into scandalous territories of neglect. The fact that Fish Food shows up over the header in big red text really irks me. I am ashamed of it.

I would like some help with that, thanks!

Aside from that, I’m still EATING and I’m still eating VEGAN and now I have come to terms with my WHEAT INTOLERANCE. Now I love life even more because of all the painless tummy times I’ve been having! What joy. Seriously. A torso that feels like a hard, inflated bruise is not a good time.

SO!

I should be here! And I should be at XGFX, too! And in the garden growing as much as my knowledge and luck will let me!

Let me fill you in on the latter part of February!

Mexican Style Salsa Potatoes

Oh I wish I could remember what I put in this outstanding potato dish. Sigh!

Quesadilla!

Touch me all over, you sultry quesadilla. I could have you every day. Onions, green pepper, mushrooms mixed with cheddar and mozza Daiya… yes please!

Fiery Falafel Scramble

One morning when I was out of my usual scramble ingredients I had this genius idea to use FALAFEL MIX! It was ah-maze-ing! I added some chili flakes and kept the colors fiery with red pepper, corn, and carrots!

Obviously, FxOxOxD is three months backlogged so expect a flood of new goodness to feast your eyes upon!

FxOxOxD is BACK IN ACTION.

Here are some highlights from my delicious trip to San Francisco in February! We’ll start at the beginning and then zig-zag-ric-rac the rest of the way. (Who knows when I ate what! I blame my many sugar comas.)

Frozen Soy Yogurt with Chocolate Shavings and RASPBERRY SAUCE

Frozen Soy Yogurt with Chocolate Shavings and TOASTED COCONUT

Upon arriving I was whisked away to Fraiche. San Francisco was swinging into a hot week so I was eager to welcome vegan frozen yogurt into my life! I got so excited I neglected to notice the toasted coconut option so I *had* to get another serving before we left. I ate both while my tour-guides worked on their single serving. What if I never returned to Fraiche again?! Good thing I trusted my gut instinct because we didn’t return to this lovely part of San Francisco.

OH!

Another reason to love Fraiche!

Yes, we certainly did spend a significant chunk of our vegan fro’yo conversation frantically whisper-scheming ways to smuggle this sexy beast out of the shop. How could we not?! You’re only in my dreams now. So close, yet so far away.

Sigh.

For breakfast, the lovely JayMoh of the Post Punk Kitchen fixed me a real down home breakfast while I showered international airport dirt off my body. Check this : ! : ! : ! :

Ahh yes, the 3rd Annual Boxing Day Brunch at the Smitherbie residence.

This year we fed 19 people! Many people said it was one of the best parties they had ever been to ! Now, that’s a compliment. We had Lady Gaga and air hockey, 5 snuggies, and a massssssive sectional couch, and I had tanqueray. Thank you Colleen.

On to the food!

Gigantic Tofu Scramble

This scramble contained 3 pounds of tofu! THREE POUNDS. It had mushrooms, onions, carrots, and green pepper. Goodness it was a fine, fine scramble.

Gingerbread Waffles

This recipe from Vegan Brunch is out of control good. Luckily for us the Smitherbie residence comes complete with a handy-dandy waffle iron.

Cranberry Ginger Sauce

Again, from Vegan Brunch, this recipe is the bomb-diggity. Cranberry and ginger accompany the gingerbread waffles like it’s their only wish in life. They are all-over-it.

Hash-style Potatoes

Boiled the night before, fried up with some veggie dogs.. HASH ! Nom.

Deeericious Soup

This is one of my personal recipes and it doesn’t taste like it looks! It’s not slop, promise. It’s a lentil soup with curry, cumin, cilantro, smoked flavouring, and lots of sauteed onions. You’d love me a little more if you tried it, trust me.

Festive Holiday Salad

In this picture you can clearly see the effects of the Tanqueray. Yes, my picture taking skills were held captive by Gin and juice! IT WASN’T MY FAULT. This salad is from Gourmet Magazine, and let me tell you…it’s a winner!
